wounded winner the israeli elections. benjamin netanyahu's coalition had expected to get more votes. they did in fact win the most number of seats but not as many as they had wanted. what ended up happening is that voters turned around and chose centrist or center left groups as well in big numbers. the big, big surprise was a group that came out of nowhere almost because they just started their party last year but ended up getting the second largest number of votes. all the polls had predicted that netanyahu's party would swing farther to the right and it appears that he is opening up a possible large coalition and including perhaps the left if he can get them to join. so this may have an impact on how the international community sees israel, have an impact on some of the things this particular government goes after such as what they will do with the peace process or what they will do with settlements. certainly, there is going to be a lot of horse trading over the next few weeks. erin? >> thanks very much. >>> now let's
